ONE BROADWAY PLAZA PROJECT EIR ADDENDUM CITY OF SANTA ANA 5. Environmental Analysis Table 9 Proposed Project Student Generation School Generation Rate (Multifamily) Proposed Dwelling Units Student Generated Elementary School 0.2899 415 120 Middle School 0.1256 415 52 High School 0.1484 415 62 Total: 234 Source: Dolinka Group 2014. d) Parks? Less Than Significant Impact/No Changes or New Information Requiring Preparation of an EIR. The Proposed Project would generate residents on -site which are anticipated to use area parks. As discussed in the Initial Study for the Approved Project, French Park is the nearest park to the Project Site. Sasser, Angels, and Birch Parks are also in the project vicinity. Additionally, the Approved Project includes a courtyard on -site and interior recreation space, which could be used by onsite residents. The development of the Proposed Project would be required to comply with the City's Park Acquisition and Development Fee. Payment of the park fees would ensure that the Proposed Project's impacts are less than significant. e) Library services? Less Than Significant Impact/No Changes or New Information Requiring Preparation of an EIR. As indicated in the Certified EIR, the Project Site is served by Santa Ana Library System services. The Project area is served by the Civic Center Library at 26 Civic Center Plaza, which is approximately 0.3 miles southwest of the Project Site. The Santa Ana Library system includes the Civic Center Library, which includes a computer lab, learning center, and Santa Ana History Room, and the Newhope Library Learning Center, which includes a computer lab, learning center, and teen space. The City also has the Rancho Santiago Community College Library and the Orange County Law Library. Future residents of the Project Site would be mainly served by the Civic Center Library; however, residents would have access to all libraries in the City of Santa Ana. The ability to visit any library within the Santa Ana Library System would alleviate demand on the Civic Center library. Further, the Santa Ana Library system is funded by the City's General Fund in combination with grants and donations (City of Santa Ana 2020). As such, the operation of the One Broadway Plaza would contribute to the library by paying property taxes. Therefore, the Proposed Project would result in a less than significant impact to library services. 5.15.3 Adopted Mitigation Measures Applicable to the Proposed Project The following mitigation measures have been carried through from the One Broadway Plaza EIR. These mitigation measures have been incorporated into MMRP for this Addendum.
